White & Yellow

[andrea7777]

Here are pictures of my pair of White & Yellow (Callico):

Female named Mandarina, now 36 Gramms, she developed some green spots, as usual hard to show in a photo:

and the male named Limey, now 26 gramms :

Thanks, how are yours ? Can you post some pics please?

Ok so I know what a calico is in cats, lol. But what are the specifics / qualities of such a morph in a leopard gecko?

 

[andrea7777]

The morph comes originally from Russia, if you look for posts of GF member GekonLublin who works with them for a couple of years now you will see more of them. He is the breeder of mine as well.
Genetic is not proven out so far GekonLublin assumes its Codominant but he needs another year to prove that out.
Generally you can say they have an enigmaish look (although they were known in Russia before Enigmas came out in the US) but greyblue eyes, more pastell colours, a dorsal stripe, very often they show paradox markings.

As far as I know meanwhile there are some of them in the US too.

My female is laying eggs already and I don't want to stress her... but I post her babies soon

The morph comes originally from Russia

just one correcting, the original breeders comes from Belarus as far as I know.

thats correct I too think it was Belarus, but since Belarus was a part of Russia when I was teached geography I was so sloppy to make no difference

So do these guys have the same abnormal, neurologic type of movement as the enigmas? I still don't get the calico name. They're pretty but they look nothing like a calico. And I assume their can be males too.

 

[andrea7777]

They do not have any neurological or other issues many of the the enigmas show, they are not related to them - as said before they were bred before the first Enigma dropped out of his egg.

I don´t know why it comes to the name calico, maybe because of the paradox markings
Also so far there are both names for the same morph used by different breeders: White&Yellow (W&Y) and Calico, I prefer White & Yellow because it gives you a better idea of the morph and is the name used by the original breeder sergey.

Agreed, I like white and yellow. And i do like the morph as well, even more so now that you tell me they're not neuro. Who breeds them here in the states?

Very nice geckos congrats

Thats the reason why I bought them - I love the look of Enigmas but I don´t want to have the risk of neurological problems - just a personal decision, no offense to any enigma owners (or breeders)

I don´t want to spread false rumors but as far as I remeber GeckoGalaksen sent some over to the US last year, but I don´t remember to whom.

 

[lpcad]

Verry pretty geckos!!!
